Madeira Library I Portugal I Restoration & Digitization

  • Restoration
  • Digitization

The Madeira Regional Archive and Library Directorate are embarking on a digitization project.

Two of their collections need to be restored: a collection of 18th and 19th century land registers from the Ministry of Finance, damaged by mould and mishandling; and a collection of notarial deeds, bequests and wills penned between the 17th and the 19th centuries, deeply eaten by woodworms.

La Reliure du Limousin is setting up a workshop on site at the museum and will transfer conservation skills to a team of 10, who will take more than a year to complete this new challenge.
